Magical Moments

I often feel my Galactic family is with me as I see their ships in the clouds.

Still reeling a bit from the equinox energetic download. Mentally I feel confusion swirling about me, heart wise, I feel strong and bright. I have nine days left here in New Zealand and the how and where to spend them, has shifted and changed. I had it set and those who know me understand how strange that is to begin with as I have hardly planned a day ahead, no less a week or two at a time. Plane schedules induce some planning as do some places that I wished to visit. I am meant to be moving today but new opportunities arose and I have been trying without success to get some clarity as to where it is in my highest good to be. All choices hold the possibility of joy, none presenting itself as the one choice. So, I come across as Miss Flake..yes I will be arriving today, oh, on second thought, could it be in a few days, oh, now it feels like it should be today. YIkes, I am making myself dizzy! Deep breath.

So, instead of pursuing any of that further, (I will make a call when the office opens at the retreat center where I am meant to journey to today), I am turning to writing. When Nicky asked me to contribute a guided meditation or something to the equinox celebration, I had no idea what that might be. I trusted Spirit and myself to come through as I do have that faith. I called a dear friend back in the USA, who knows me through and through. I told her that I would be speaking but had no clue as to what form it would take. She laughed and said, “Oh, this is interesting. You will be doing something new. You are going to bring through messages for people.” I have never done that and indeed it has been a long time since I have channeled any information. I no longer felt a draw to it and it seemed to fall away.

I love this beautiful world!

It happened as my friend had felt. I brought the painting of Roselight with me and she wanted a heart meditation to begin. It was beautiful as we accessed the secret chamber inside our hearts and moved outward then to connect to ourselves in one another with eye gazing. Such a deep peace permeated my being as I gazed into the eyes of another and knew them as myself. What a wonder that this is true. I was so deeply rooted in my heart that I could flow that peace and love to the other with a strength and force that I had not previously experienced. It was a field of energy, of truth and love. Indeed messages came through from many different masters for different people. Sanat Kumara, Hilarion, Archangel Michael, Mother Mary and Mary Magdalene……the first two being new to come through me though familiar as all of them are masters dear to my heart. The amazing thing was that each one was the right one for the person in front of me, confirmed by tears. I love how our bodies open with tears when we meet truth and beauty and love. My eyes overflowed throughout the day as the wonder of it all took place.

No wonder I struggle with planning! I am living the new paradigm where we flow from one thing to another without an agenda or plan. Of course, there is setting an intention for an event to take place, setting aside the space for it, and then allowing it to be filled by the spirit of each one attending. Even that is beyond me which is why I am not the one leading events as yet. When I hear of plans far out in the future, it feels surreal to me as I cannot imagine much beyond the moment. Each day, I awaken and open myself to the possibility that I will be living in my home community in the new earth. It takes a deep breath of adjustment as I find myself here. I know that there is so much beauty here to be celebrated. There is the practice of seeing all through the eyes of love. Of letting go of judgment of any kind, of accepting everything and melting all back to the reality of love that it is. Loving my confusion and letting it melt into the love. Accepting myself as the being that I am.

Glynne and Nicky of the lovelight!

Nicky and Glynne, the two beautiful souls who have invited me into their home and hearts, have just come to give me total relief this morning! Glynne came with a day of walking in nature for grounding after a hearty breakfast. Nicky brought a message from Mary Magdalene and Yeshua that I have been finding my way through my travels searching for home and that now I will be at home with my way. With my way of being in the world and that my home is so close and yet it is the being at home with the way my energy moves and weaves in the world. Tears and more tears and laughter. Nicky began singing, “We are family, all my brother and sisters with me!” and the three of us danced and sang and laughed in delight.

I am off to shower and greet the beauty of this day, letting go of any further planning and allowing the moments to unfold in HIs/Her divine wisdom. We are so loved!!!

Equinox Energies Emerging

Entering the new energies.......

Happy Equinox! The energies began streaming in a few days ago, manifesting as fatigue as my body moves to integrate these great streams of lovelight. I celebrated the Vernal Equinox here in New Zealand, yet I sense that we are all opening into our harvest time, whether we feel the approach of spring or autumn in our landscape.  Three quarters of the year has gone and with it, we have released so much of our baggage and out dated belief systems. I arrive at this juncture, knowing nothing. I am empty of words, ideas, beliefs…..floating in the ethers with joy. No longer caring to know anything, wanting to exist simply in the beauty of my heart. It feels as if most of me has already arrived in the new earth, though there is a foot tethered here. I find myself savoring these last days of duality. Appreciating the simple pleasures of bird song, good food, naps, flowers, talks with dear friends. There is no striving. I feel creative energies stirring, filling my palms with beauty that seeks form. Yet, there is a trusting that the timing will present itself as to when this unfolds. I do not have to push it, plan for it. I have surrendered to divine timing in all things.  Everything that I dream of is so close that I am touching it, breathing it, sighing with it. A blink of an eye and we are all there. That is my knowing.

Roselight by Jan Pirovano Williams

I was delighted to be a part of an Equinox celebration day with dear friends.  A day before, I was gifted a beautiful painting of an angel by an amazing artist, Jan. I was admiring her paintings and she said that she had one for me if she could find it. I climbed a ladder and found it high upon a shelf. She told me that she did not know its name. Immediately, Roselight gave me her name as well as the certain knowledge that she was to be with me. She has been expanding my heart ever since. She asked to be a part of the Equinox celebrations. Her heart light filled the space and helped to set the tone for the day of love that transpired. It was a day of deep heart connection. I may not have remembered everyone’s name, but I do recall their heartlight. The highlight of the day for me came when we all toned to our inner beloveds, our true selves. We sent our love into the center of the circle and I felt the elementals and angels at work, as they harmonized our tone with the whole. Tears flowed easily as the love flowed in spirals, ever ascending and descending, connecting heaven and earth. Miracles can be wrought through the human voice that we are barely aware of.

That seafoam green horizon line speaks to me of the love streaming in, joining heaven and earth.

The vibration of community was alive and well. Everyone gave of their gifts as we moved through the day; eating delicious food seasoned with love, drawing tree mandalas, grounding with our mother, singing with John Lennon’s Imagine song, entering our hearts and expanding our own love for the beings we are. Grace flowed as Ra, the resident king cat presided over the proceedings with his regal bearing, reminding us all to walk tall in the knowing of our mastery. A day of wonder and delight, rich, so rich in communion with the oneness of all. A true co-creative event. Amazing to come half way around the world and through the wonder of facebook, connect to soul family! The weaving is so bright and strong as our hearts sing to one another along the grids of light. No longer waiting for our heads to go through some prescribed dance of how to get to know another, we are opening our hearts to feel the connection that has been there all along. Instantaneous, certain, and explosive with love. I know in a flash, that a veil has been lifted and the truth of our hearts’ love for one another is there in the first look. Love at first sight! Yes, it is true. We fall in love in an instant and it is an eternal love. Not the romanticized version that we have been fed from our youth. No, this is deeper than that. It is a love that knows no conditions nor bounds. It simply is. Perhaps it is best described as agape love, which wikipedia tells us is:

refers to the covenant love of God for humans, as well as the human reciprocal love for God; the term necessarily extends to the love of one’s fellow man. Many have thought that this word represents divine, unconditional, self-sacrificing, active, volitional, and thoughtful love

Today I am floating, punch drunk with the energies released at yesterday’s event and still streaming in many parts of the world. My mind encountered confusion when I attempted to plan the movements of the morrow. Finally, I surrendered and am allowing this dreamy state full reign. It is part of the integration, the anchoring of these love energies. We are all floating about, drifting upon the waves of the new land. I am holding in my heart, the beauty of the camilla flowers that graced our table yesterday. Each so perfect and yet unique, purity and light in form, symbolizing the hearts floating together on this sea of love. I am so grateful! I am loving the beauty that I am. In that loving, I know the beauty that you are. Own it, shine it, be it!


Embracing All of Me

sunset from my window

Nelson, New Zealand

Awoke to the sound of rain which had lulled me to sleep last night. I had a glorious, if short night as I gave in to the deliciousness of a good story, a hot cup of tea and a crunchy cookie which softened to the melting point as I dipped it. Bliss! The story was a about the 13 crystal skulls and took me into that land of mystery and order that informs our universe. I so love this universe! So much is unexplained and beyond our mind’s ability to comprehend. I find myself overcome with awe when I feel the majesty of the plan. And I do feel it, deeply in my heart. Finding that book to entertain me was one such example of something presenting itself to me at the right time. It reaffirmed my faith that it has ever been the plan for us to return to our Mother/Father’s embrace. That a thousand safeguards were put in place to assure our return. The Mayans predicted this end time of duality with remarkable accuracy. The crystal skulls were formed to carry the codes and frequencies that would assist us at the perfect time. Over and over, I am shown that I can fully surrender and trust divine timing in all things. I am grateful for all the myriad ways that I am cared for, again and again. We are so loved!!!

One of dozens of one lane bridges I crossed on my drive along the coast.

Last night I was chatting online with my son. He was telling me of his plans to rearrange the study in the family house to suit his new interest in video recording. I immediately jumped in with a dozen ideas of what to move, get rid of, bring in.

“We’ll (his brother and he) handle it Momma =),” says he.

“OK, my organizer self jumped right in there! heehee.”

“She’s a powerhouse!” says he.

“OK, pulling her out.”

I then began to laugh, typing lol and heehee, as I loved my dear organizer self.

I said, “She could organize the  universe!”

“I am sure she has.” says he.

“I think I was a planetary planner in another life. Haha, I get such a kick out of me!”

He agreed and we laughed and laughed. The dearness of me, the way I want to bring comfort and beauty to everything and everyone. This is a part of who I am and I could feel the truth that I have done this on a much larger scale, it is one of my many gifts.

The glacier emanating its icy blueness to the world.

It is such a delight to honor and recognize the gifts that I bring to this earth plane. More and more, I feel the sweetness of all of us and my heart explodes with the knowing of each one’s beauty and value. We each hold a unique set of talents, gifts that are ours and ours alone. It is time to cast off all fear of what others may think, of fitting into a box labeled “normal”, of following a presribed path set out by a society interested in control……it is time to follow our hearts and open our gifts for all the world to see.

 

I am expanding my version of me to allow my multidimensional self greater rein. We are not limited humans, we are powerful gods and goddesses from the stars that came here to assist our beautiful Mother Earth and our brothers and sisters to ascend into the love and oneness. Unity is not simply a concept, it is a consciousness, a state of being. The rain is singing it, the leaves are rustling with it, the waves dance it, the sunlight warms us with it, the earth sends the feeling up through our feet. I am feeling the power of love. There is nothing that can withstand its onslaught. It truly melts all resistance in its path. Gandhi knew this, Jesus and Mary Magdalene lived this,  as did others who held so firmly to the love in their hearts,  lighting the way for the rest of us to walk.

Water flowing with such grace, showing me the way to be.

Search for that way and follow it. No matter what comes into your world, an angry person, a “terrible” event, a physical illness, a betrayal, economic hardship……love it. Open your heart and beam love at it for all you are worth! It will change things. It will soften the edges until they can no longer hold and all is melted back to the reality of love that is all things. This world is an illusion, held together by our thoughts. The bedrock, the foundation upon which it is built is love. Only love. Seek this. Feel this. Embrace this. Emanate this.

It is so simple. Why are we here? What are we to do? We are here to be love. To shine the light from home upon this most beautiful of playing fields. Earth is the jewel of the universe. The blue water planet of such diversity of forms and beings. Time to pack up and head out to meet the ferry and my beautiful daughter. The rain has stopped for the moment. We may have a long soggy day or one of wind or sunshine or all three……it matters not. We will have an adventure in nature and move with her with our hearts alight with love.

There is only this moment……open your heart wide and love everything as it is. Let criticism and judgment fall away, embrace yourself, embrace your life and love as if your life depended upon it. It does!

 

Oneness Dreamscape

Doubtful Sound in the fjords of south New Zealand

Sept 7th I am at Fox Glacier. I arrived after a six hour drive from Queenstown. It was my first experience of renting a car and driving on the wrong side of the road. Twice after pulling out of places as twilight approached and it was pouring buckets, I found myself looking at an approaching vehicle in my lane. Oh, I mean their lane! Move over Linda! Yikes. Fatigue does funny things, my brain defaulted to the right side of the road in its weariness. Definitely a sign that it was time to find lodging. Stopped at a couple of places, one did not answer the bell, one was a full apartment which I did not need nor desire. And finally, one was just right! A cafe a half a block away, a kind innkeeper, warm duvet and an electric heater in the room. It continued to storm throughout the night and I was cozy in my wood paneled room listening to the rain on the roof.

On my drive I discovered that I feel uncomfortable when hemmed in on both sides by forest. My spirit collapses in on itself. I realized this when the land opened into pasture land with sheep and cows and a vista for my eyes to travel. Relief! Later there was the ocean for a brief bit so I got out to walk on the shore with the crashing waves. There were piles of white stones all about, used as tablets by passerbys to leave their messages. Some were in remembrance of loved ones passed on, others carried their names and home countries as a marker of their passing by. I found it moving. I found my rock and left my message of peace and love to this land of New Zealand from California. I do love this land. I flowed liquid  lovelight all along my route, feeling the mountains and rainforests in their pristine beauty. Waterfalls gushed down the rock faces and splashed onto the highway as I passed. I had to stop and wait for a rockslide area that was being cleared. The innkeeper told me that the day before the road had been closed due to the slide and had only opened that morning. There are dozens of one land bridges that you cross, signs tell you if you have the right of way or not though you have to slow down and look before preceding.

sunlight dancing on the water

I told my angels last night that I must be up for the driver of the year award. My, I have driven so many miles of highway in the past three years! Much of it, lonely highway where I do not see many other cars. I tone, I sing, I cry, I sigh. I flow my lovelight and ask the peace to settle deep into our Mother’s core. This morning I fell into a dreamscape. I do not do formal meditation but can access that space of otherness. I was floating on a body of water, arms and legs outstretched, feeling the joy of being held by the Mother and connected to her core as well as the power running through me from the Father, shining His/Her light down into me. From above and below, causing an explosion of light and love in my heart. I intended for that love, peace, abundance and harmony to flow outward. I asked the undines of the water and the sylphs of the air to carry my message on their currents all around the world. Instantly, it was done. I love the elementals! They are so eager to work with us to bring this planet to her divine perfection and to assist all souls to ascend with our Mother.

As I was floating in waves of deep peace, another came who is so dear to my heart. He took my hand and looked over at me as we both lie floating on our backs. He smiled and I smiled back as the oneness engulfed us. There was no need for words as all was known and all was love. Another then came and took my other hand, again I looked over and smiled as the oneness took us deeper. One by one, hand by hand, others joined until all the waters of the earth were covered with folks floating in the oneness and beaming the love flame to the earth. Joy is too small a word for what was experienced. The tipping point came as more people felt the desire to join. It was time to cover the land masses. We all tipped over as it were, now we were facing downward towards the earth as we float in the air just above her. Our hands and hearts were still joined as we beamed our love to the earth. People came out of their houses to see the sight of us. Funny, it was as if we were the UFO’s but we were not unidentified and we were indeed of starry origin. As we have all come from the stars! People could feel the love and their hearts opened to it. They began to reach up to us. When their hearts filled with the love and opened completely, they rose up and joined hands and became part of our circle about the globe. Oh, it was magical! Children were laughing, old folks were crying as all felt the love permeate this planet. All knew that this was a blessed event and the time to join was NOW!

I could hear a hum begin and grow louder as more people added their heart’s flame to the oneness. All began to vibrate in the unity consciousness. Tears fell as I recognized this sound, the sound of home. I had long known that there would come a point when we and the earth would harmonize with one another, with our galaxy,  with the universe and with the Creator. There are no words to describe the beauty of that sound. It contained every blessed thing of this earth and beyond. It sang of a love that I have never experienced in an earthly life. It was the note from Home. The caress of the lover, the comfort and love of being held and rocked in the arms of the Mother, the safety and protection of the Father as his eyes twinkle the message well done, my child, well done!

Later that day, I stopped at a hot pool to soak in the waters. At one point, I found myself floating on my back and the sensation of this dreamscape came rushing in. How beautiful! In that moment, all was right with my world.

Blue Moon Offering Her Gifts

Blue moon rising in Wellington, New Zealand

The blue moon is here and I am opening myself to her gifts. She started with me early. Two nights ago, I went through the most difficult night I have experienced physically. I had intense head pressure all day but the night ramped it up. I ended up sitting near the toilet, dry heaving, not much there as my queasiness had kept my stomach empty. But my body did its best to try to let go of the ill feeling sweeping through me. For the better part of two days, I had to keep my head low! Meaning take it easy, rest and breathe with it. I did finally call on Archangel Michael to alleviate the pressure somewhat or at least give me a visual of what it was all about. I understood that the time of awakening more fully into our multidimensional selves is at hand. August has been a month of releasing and clearing. We are about to “come online” in a wholly new way. My brain needed a major rewire and I needed to be awake while it happened, (I had asked if I could sleep through it!) I could feel my hemispheres being joined in a new way, deep inside my brain. Whew, I am grateful that upgrade is over! I am also filled with gratitude to all the light beings and angels that were working on me. Thank you!

Beautiful sunset over the harbor

Once in a blue moon…..that phrase tells us that something rare and unique is coming our way. This moon is offering us the gift of transformation into our new selves. We are have been undergoing purification; our bodies have experienced dizziness, ringing in the ears, nausea, heat/cold flashes, and naps have become a necessity. We have been asked to honor ourselves in all ways: caring for our bodies with tenderness, caring for our emotions by choosing to be around people and situations that uplift us and setting boundaries or releasing those relationships which no longer feed us, caring for our hearts by speaking our truth in every situation, caring for our minds by sinking into our hearts and connecting the two before taking action, and caring for our spirits by setting aside time each day to turn inward.

View from our lunch table

Old memories have surfaced yet again to be fully felt and released. Anyone whom we have unresolved issues with, is there to be forgiven fully, whether they are present in the physical or not. Now is the time to make those calls, write those letters or speak it to the others’ higher self. Gift yourself by releasing ANY thing less than love with anyone you have ever known. Bring them to mind and surround them in a pink ovoid of love and ask their forgiveness for holding on to any anger or judgment towards them. Call on your angels for help if you struggle with this. Say your ho’oponopono: I am sorry, please forgive me, I love you, thank you. There is no time left to be out of love with anyone. It is time for forgiveness on a grand scale. We were created from love, we are love and it is time to drop the illusion that we are anything else. Forgive anything in your life that felt like pain and suffering. Forgive yourself for any perceived wrongdoing or shortcoming. Release guilt and shame and step into the freedom that love offers. We are being asked to let the river of love flow free with everyone.

Fresh fish lunch that I appreciated after days of nausea.

All that is not love is baggage that we cannot take on this new ride. We are crossing the rainbow bridge into a new life. A life of peace, harmony, love and abundance for everyone. We are all one and are beginning to feel that more deeply each day. The planets, the stars, this moon, our mother earth, our sun, the elementals…….all of them are assisting us to awaken. Our skies are full of ships from the Galactic Federation of Light that we are soon to join as our Mother Earth moves into the 5th dimension of light. The ships are full of our starry brothers and sisters, here to assist us in our awakening. The angels and ascended masters and mighty archangels are all close at hand, ready to be of assistance as we find our sea legs and begin to walk on this new earth.

Appreciation is a huge key in all this. Focus on what brings you joy and savor the feeling. Here is a resource that I have used to aid in integrating these intense energies:

Riding the Waves….up and down

This guy is riding buildings in this Wellington wind. It is whistling all about today.

I am observing how my energies change with the wind, moving hither and yon in a short space of time.  Here is how I felt yesterday morning:

I feel that I have become my own master, guides, others have dropped away like training wheels to allow me my solo ride. I told Spirit to take all my memories, there is nothing that I need or want to hang on to as I KNOW that all that i need, will be given to me. For me, it is trusting that by surrendering everything (yes everything) all will be restored in ways that I cannot even begin to imagine. So……I am floating on those currents. Feeling more in my body than ever before, enjoying the physical senses to a new degree and thinking of no thing. Being in pure appreciation and joy. I find this to be a wondrous time. I am allowing the energies to enliven me. Today the wind and sea are storming and I feel giddy like a little child. I love the elements and feel more elemental every day!!

And here is what I wrote yesterday evening:

Time for me to get still and listen which these bright structures seem to be doing.

Feeling so sleepy and dreamy, move through the days and doing lots with my daughter but left to my own, would not do much. The energy streaming in has felt pretty strong at times this past week. For the most part, I feel so at peace, then I realize I have been here almost 2 weeks and need to move soon. My daughter and her partner are so sweet and accommodating and I do not want to overstay my welcome. Yet no tourist self is emerging…..I guess i will fly south and stay somewhere for a few days….

it all feels like a muddle to plan, and i have to plan about changing my return ticket. Took the first step, now to go online and follow all the prompts as I did get the password sent to me. Then I can see the cost of changing the ticket and how long I have to book a new one. Of course, have no idea about a date for that!

Brooding sky over the harbor.

Ok, LInda, move towards joy. Which direction feels lighter in all this? Should I fly over to Australia and visit a couple of friends on the east coast? Sounds easy in theory but the movement feels too big right now. I can kind of see myself there but not the getting there part. A friend up north I want to take time to see before leaving. All these bits and pieces to put into the pie and me sitting here listening to the wind howl about the place, watching the waves toss their foamy heads and content to snuggle under the blanket and drift. I can monitor the tiny tug guiding the huge ship into port and see the cranes busy unloading cargo. I love harbors! So much action, No kayakers, sailboarders or sailboats out today. Yesterday morning we went out for an intro sail and had a blast. I love being on the water and feeling the power of the wind and waves.

I love their use of sails!

I have loved being more physical with my daughter’s encouragement,  i love the wildness,,,today the whitecaps on the water and the wind crazy strong……you sure feel alive! But then I want only to rest and look out at it……..in silence. Drifting in and out of my self. So….. a lovely place with a view is what i need to find. Driving a car on the wrong side of the road seems daunting though I have done it before…..back in my twenties. I feel so dreamy that to concentrate like that feels hard. Tonight i have that “where do I park my body?” feeling…….again. It has come up plenty of times in the past few months. The desire to do much of anything gone. Yet full appreciation of all the beauty abounding, present.  I ask myself, “What am I doing?”

One of the sculptures created and consumed on the day of the winter carnival.

As you can see, I am observing myself flow in every direction, like a wind vane on this blustery day. I went to bed and read James Redfield’s, The 12th Insight, (he wrote The Celestine Prophecy and The Secret of Shambhala). When I finished the book, I slept and dreamt of being with a group of people and teaching them how to use all the insights. It was very powerful and I awoke knowing I need to be doing this now! That the group of people that would hold that frequency with me, would soon appear. I know many scattered about the globe. For now it seems most of us are doing our thing solo though as I read this book, I felt all of us drawing closer together. Somehow it will happen like magic and we will be in the same physical space, co-creating together. I know we are doing it on the etheric level already yet there will be a new layer of joy added when we are embracing one another in the physical. I think that it will feel a bit like the conclusion of the winter festival we went to. Standing on the beach with the crowds, ahhing and ouuing with delight at all the sights while the wind chilled us and the fire warmed us. So much at once, hard to discern what you feel only you know you are alive! 

Sculpture blazing, fireworks dancing, wind blowing scattered raindrops.....quite a sensory delight!

 

Kindness Takes on a New Meaning

Water and sky.....what a world!

KIndness is a quality that most will agree is a good one. As with most values and beliefs that I have held, I find that we were fed a false or limited version of the truth. We like concepts like kindness as it has a warm and fuzzy feel. I like warm and fuzzy yet not at the expense of truth. I am discovering that it is the energy behind the concept that makes all the difference. Much of the time, surface kindness masks resentment. I know that was true for me in the past. I acted in ways to “be kind” yet in doing so, neglected my own needs. Over time, that led to resentment as my ego cried out for acknowledgment.  I sacrificed my own comfort levels to take the “higher road” of kindness. We were taught that this was the path of being a “good person”. Give more than receive. Always offer a helping hand. So many platitudes which hold value if seen in a new light whereby I make myself part of the equation.  I reject the notion of putting myself last. I have come to the the knowing that my needs are to be met first and foremost. Only when my cup is full, do I have something to offer to others.

It can be a mark of kindness to set a boundary with another. To claim our space. If I hold my space as sacred, I have the right and even the duty to myself, to maintain a boundary as to who I allow to enter in. I might meet someone in a public space and spend time together yet not feel that their energy is one that I would chose in my sacred space. I can set a boundary on how much time I can give in conversation, in interaction with another as my soul has claim on expanses of my time for stillness and contemplation. When I honor the needs of my soul, I can be fully present with others when I choose to engage.

Filing my cup with kindness by gifting myself a visit to this beautiful land to play with my beautiful daughter.

Kindness then can appear as something else to another if they feel that their needs are not being met by me. I have come to know that if I am following the path of my highest good in any situation, then it cannot harm another. I may disappoint another, annoy another but that may be the kindest thing of all. We are taught that it is better to make everyone comfortable even if it comes at our own expense. Kindness is not always comfortable. I have to be willing to speak my truth and receive unpleasant reaction energy. That may be the true kindness that I can show another. It is not easy nor comfortable and it may take deep breathing at times. On the small scale, I am one who will tell you if you have something caught between your teeth or a zipper unzipped……on a larger scale I may point our that one is being manipulative in their use of energy and I do not appreciate it. Not comfortable to speak of yet it is this type of kindness that I am most grateful for when others have dared speak it to me.

We are all teachers for one another. If you come to me and ask for something that does not feel right for me to give (my old self would have given but felt uncomfortable or unhappy) you may react when I say no. Yet that no is a yes to myself and it alerts you to a place in you that may desire to be looked at. And the same is true for myself when another sets a limit on a way that I am interacting. I am seeing so clearly how we trigger one another and act in ways to release any lingering unconscious patterns that we may hold. That is an act of kindness. To speak truth without regard to the reaction that it elicits. I temper it with, this is my truth as I see it,  for each one’s truth is their own. Mine changes frequently as I evolve on this path. It is not easy to discern our highest truth at times as our old patterns pull us back into unconscious ways of relating and moving in this world. This is especially true with family members where there we have worn such deep grooves in our brains of old ways of relating. I was cast as the “good daughter” by my family of origin and when I outgrew the role, I outgrew my family as they could not accept me relinquishing the role. My younger sister called me in despair, saying, “Oh no, now they have made me the good daughter! Help!” These relations call us to be fully present and conscious in our reactions, acting authentically as we feel our truth rather than allowing the old role to play us unconsciously.

I am seeing that when someone’s actions trigger a reaction in me, they have gifted me as I am now alerted to an area that wants attention. If I feel judgmental, what part of me is needing love? If I feel angry, what part of me feels violated? I can look to myself for cause as well as resolution. Almost all of it comes down to lack of love. With this expanded viewpoint of anything that causes me to move from peace, I can see the kindness of those souls who are bringing me the opportunity to move more fully into peace. In truth, our enemies (isn’t that word strange? the concept feels so foreign) are our greatest teachers as they help us see where we still have work to do to be free. Inner peace is freedom like no other.

Soaring free as I care for myself allowing me to send my energies across the seas.

I love discovering these patterns with folks in my life. One dear to me on the soul level has been a wonderful teacher as he feels out all the paths of unconsciousness in me and comes in on those paths to alert me where I am still unconscious. I so appreciate this in him. He illuminates the pathway until I set a boundary and close that pathway.  He then seeks another until I am conscious in all aspects. This then truly frees him to be conscious as he no longer has that role to play. So my setting boundaries is an act of kindness to him and his seemingly unconscious behavior, is an act of kindness to me. I feel waves of gratitude these days for all the bearers of what appeared as hardship in my life. I send thank yous out to them for playing their roles in my life. It may have appeared as anything but kind yet all were acts of kindness on a soul level to help me awaken to my truth.

The concept of kindness expands as we do. I am ready to live in a world where kindness is expressed by all, for themselves, first and foremost. This will naturally lead to it being expressed to others. We will all be bathed in the waters of kindness. As we care for ourselves, we care for all others as we are all one. Oh, it is such a win-win universe that we live in! I am so grateful!

 

 

 

 


 

Breaking up the Old Roads of Connection to Bring in the New

The Maori inspired gateway at the airport.

The significance of walking into a new land continues to inform me on many levels. Walking through this gateway on arrival signified an entrance into a new way of being. If I missed it, there was this being shocking me into wakefulness!

 

 

 

This was illustrated last night when I came across a video from a friend that contained images of him and another, who are both dear to my heart. I felt an intense wave of longing for them, almost a grieving of missing them as if they had passed from this life. My heart felt it so deeply and yet quickly that the tears hardly had time to form before the energy was moving through. I was left feeling rather empty. I questioned my decision of a month ago to not see these two when I had the chance. I examined my reasons to see if it was false pride or indeed a question of honoring myself as I had concluded.  I had chosen not see Joseph  (could have seen Eagle but they were traveling together so to see one was to see both) as when we had last parted, Joseph had asked for my contact information and chose to be the one to initiate the next contact. He stated that he could not come to me while he yet contained any darkness. Eagle and I were in contact at the time of their visit to California but Joseph was silent. Eagle reminded me that he was a bystander to the relationship between Joseph and I and it was mine to find clarity in. I opted to honor myself and him by not forcing the meeting before its time. Indeed, surrendering and accepting that that time might never come. (Simple statement but strenous heart workout there!) My heart in its power has often taken on the work of the other in its desire to express love. I have enough for both, has been my thought. I have been shown by the goddess mothers, the importance of honoring myself. Of allowing the love to come to me rather than pushing in any way. I am becoming wiser and allowing all their path as I tend to my own.

Flat whites (New Zealand coffee of choice), muffin, red paint and sunshine!

I went to sleep and had a vivid dream. I was with Joseph, the one I had known formerly as my beloved. He was fully in his mastery, embodying his divinity in a way that I had known to be his truth. We rejoiced in our heart connection and were busy working on a book project together. The joy I felt in seeing him whole was an explosion of love. I was in pure delight. Our souls were in perfect communion and all experiences of separation in this dimension were dissolved.

What to do with these pieces? I chatted with my elder son and we pieced together an understanding. We are being asked to let go of not only the old world, our old belief systems, but also the old ways of connection and relationship. Roles are being dropped, masks are coming off and we are learning to relate to one another’s divinity and larger aspects rather than the personality self. My son gave me a beautiful visual that clicked into understanding for me. We are all dots on this earth plane. Beautiful shining dots of light. We have had roadways of connections between us, forms that allowed us to navigate our way with one another (think of how the roads on a map help orient you to place). There was the parent -child roadway, the lover, the friend, the teacher, the boss……so many roadways that we moved on. Now we have begun to break up these roads that held us in rigid conformity. We are expanding our beings and demanding new pathways of light to move on. We are being graced with immense incoming energies of love, bombarding our planet from the sun and our starry brothers and sisters. If we hold to the old roadways and structures, the rigidity does not allow movement. The incoming energies have no choice but to shake and explode the barriers in their path. This is the catastrophic timeline that many identify with, that there must be destruction for the new age to appear.

What if we willingly dissolve the old roadways and replace them with fluid pathways of love and light? We can drop the attachment to form. This is the grieving that I felt keenly. It is similar to having a loved one die. We are left orienting ourselves to the absence of their physical presence in this dimension. Our I AM presence knows that the separation is an illusion. We are being asked to know this fully in our daily lives and relate to one another as our full selves. From I AM presence to I AM presence. I can send love and heartlight to Joseph’s I Am presence and bask in that warmth. I can then expand that feeling to all humanity and experience unity consciousness.

The bright cloud emerging from the grey.....look beyond to see more!

The new pathways we travel on are of light. No form, rather vibration which is always moving. This allows the formless room to move into form. By the act of letting go, we are allowing unity to emerge. The painful part is letting go of the ways of the personal that we have been taught. As we expand, we discover that we feel everything so much more impersonally. We are close to completing the lesson of taking no thing personally. We know we are mirrors for one another, providing opportunities for growth and expansion. We fully accept ourselves as the creators of our reality, taking responsibility for every aspect of our lives. This allows us to peel back the layers and witness the underlying unity that emerges into view.

For me, the grace in all of this, is the absolute knowing that for all that I surrender (letting go of old ways of relating as well as letting go of so many relationships themselves where our vibrations no longer match) I will be rewarded a hundredfold. The old no longer satisfies. I crave deep heart connections. That has meant some lonely times in years past as friends dropped by the wayside  but now my heart is so full and rich that it is my favorite hang out spot. I find bliss most easily by myself in that heartspace. From there, I can access anyone’s I Am presence and beam love to them and feel love from them. Through deep connection with one heart, we can access the many. Through deep connection with my own heart, I can access the Creator’s heart. He/She is always ready to play in the playground of my heart and sing along with me. Oh, what a magical world we are creating! I love us all so.

 

 

 

 

The New Land…..New Zealand

This is the sign that greeted me at the airport in this new land. I love it! After five days here, I resonate with this wildness. My heart feels at home. I find it interesting that as we energetically shifted into a new land, I was called to physically shift as well. I had been guided for so long that my place was as a seed carrier in the USA and Canada. I was not given a green light to be outside those borders. After emptying my seed bag in Banff, Alberta,  I was guided back West with a focus on the coastline. The ring of fire of the Pacific has been an area dear to my heart and now I find myself on its opposite shore in this beautiful land of New Zealand. All of a sudden, the green light swept into view and I followed its direction. I realized that I am closely connected to the air element as my promptings come to me as currents that move me forward.

The houses of Wellington, tossed like coins as if from a giant's hand across the green rolling hills.

I am currently visiting my daughter and her partner in New Zealand’s capital city of Wellington. It is called Windy Wellington so my airy nature is at home. The city is surrounded by water and hills and beauty abounds. Winter is here with chilly wet weather and surprise, this sunshine gal is loving it! Everything feels so alive to me. The clouds and mists, sun and rain are ever changing places, enlivening all my cells. I am grounded in my body in a new way. It helps that I am with my athlete of a daughter who moves like a deer up hill and dale. She is of the elements and loves to play in and with them. After years (yes, years!) of not wanting to move this body in any strenuous way, I am relishing the movement as I hike the steep hills and dance along the water’s edge. It is fun to feel my muscles come alive again. Raincoats are in order and getting soaked does not deter our outings. The water has a new quality as well, me thinks. Everything is changing.

A part of the full rainbow that greeted me on my first morning here.

I am present fully in this 3D world yet in a new way. Gratitude is a tune that my heart has begun to beat to. Simplicity rules as we shop for fresh food at the market, as I enjoy watching my daughter cook up delights and we sit down to eat it with gusto. I am so grateful for this as for so long the pleasure of eating had departed. I am enjoying walking everywhere, and even in the cold, taking off my shoes to walk in the ocean’s edges. It is wonderful to be so connected to the water! Rain falls on me for some moments most days, we have hiked surrounded by the misty clouds, there is a fountain in the harbor that streams jets of water upward at random times throughout the day and night for the shear joy of it, it seems. I love the water!

The view of the harbor from the crest of the hill behind the city.

And I love the earth with its dank dark secrets found under old trees that capture the words of the whistling winds and loud birds in their branches. Today as I stopped to drink in the shadowy land in a forested area, I knew the deep connection of Mother Earth’s core with Father Sky as they flowed in a beautiful circle in, through and out me. My body was humming with the trees. It went throughout the land and the waters carried it around the earth in the space of a breath. Use me, I cried,  to amplify and transmit this love that is pouring in from the cosmos. The elements responded and my heartlight streamed forth its ribbons of pink and gold. I gathered colors as I descended the hill, lime green and gray green mosses, dark green cedar twig, iridescent shell, rusted bit of metal, soft bluish green leaf from the euclyptus tree, bright yellow flower from a bush, a heart rock of tans and browns……my gifts from the earth this day. A jet black bird with a brilliant orange beak and the same orange circling his eyes, eyed me from the path. A Halloween bird decked out in his finest!

Colorful rooftops caught in the sun's spotlight.

I have lost interest in spiritual things, no longer wanting to talk about it. Wanting only to live in the wonder of this earth before me. To taste its fruits, to play in its waters and green undulating hillsides, to breathe deeply of its pure air and feel all that dancing inside of me. I am elemental, inside and out. I am wearing wool from the sheep to keep me warm along with steam baths and saunas and hot soups from the stove. I bought a honey, ginger, lemon elixir today that warms me from the inside out. My energy is burning bright and moves through me like an electric current that I hear echoed in the earth.

The magical ferns that are a symbol of this land.

 

This is a blessed time. I am savoring the most physical of pleasures as my senses have heightened capacities. I am sated from all that I touch, taste, hear, smell and see. Each day I am filled to capacity with little desire to reflect upon all that went into that filling. I am so protected and loved and know this to be true for each one of our hearts. There is no doing, no striving. I know so clearly that I am in my perfect place and feel the joy of fully being the best Linda Marie that I can be. Ascension is still in process, the earth is making her move to the fifth dimension, the light is on the move in a cosmic way and I nap and hike and splash about in a protected bubble of delight. Eating good chocolate, watching movies of true love’s kiss and delighting in the quick costume changes of the clouds. All the while being bathed in these wondrous love rays that are permeating the earth and floating hearts open. Here is a toast to love! And to all of you for drinking it in and letting it shine forth in such a radiant way. I love you and everything of this dear earth!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Blessings of the Lion’s Gate

This tree seemed to be a wild thing roaring with the energies of the Lion's Gate. I loved its fierce ugliness. I love that I am loving the whole so easily these days.....the dark and the light and knowing them as one.

What a day 8-8 turned out to be! Blessing : I awoke after sleeping for 8 hours straight for the first time in years. I felt newly alive in every cell. I had spent the night at my youngest son’s studio apartment in Oakland. Blessing: I got to share time with this amazing young man. We had a magical morning walking about his neighborhood, hanging his art in his space, sharing ideas and enthusiasm for creative enterprises. Blessing: The very air felt alive in a new way. My cells were dancing in joy! Blessing: It has been so long since my body has felt energized. Today it does! The thick goo or gel that I have been moving in, has lifted and I feel lighter in every way. Blessing: We went into the neighborhood thrift store and I found clothes in the magenta/purple/rose colors that I needed to be bathed in. I do not frequent stores as the commercialism aspect is so intense for me. This was a lovely encounter. We found a beautiful Italian vase as a studio warming gift for my son, we had an interesting conversation with the two women working there who were so happy to welcome my son to the neighborhood. They offered advice and ideas. Blessing: My appetite was back, it felt as if more than simply my appetite for food, but my appetite for this life. My son took me to his favorite bakery for their famous morning buns. We ordered two, one savory and one sweet to share. Our perfect combo! Blessing: We walked to a rose garden and found some actually held the fragrance I seek. Deep inhale! Blessing: I saw a heart formed in the concrete of the sidewalk. Blessing: Tiny sweet birds flit about in the morning air on my son’s fire escape. Blessing: I was able to easily find my way back to Sacramento through the maze of highways. Blessing: The golden hills dotted with oak trees that so signify California to me, were a visual treat on my drive. Blessing: I received a joy filled call from my daughter in New Zealand. She asked me to come now.

The nymphs dancing on my son's fireplace frieze. This is how I feel today!

Blessing: I am going! I had only begun to see a possible swirl of my energy there but suddenly it bloomed into a current that carried me. I spent a bit of time browsing the dozens of travel sites with so many options that you must make a decision on. Price, dates, times……things that have become pretty foreign to me. Commit to dates and time? Yet it happened with a click here and there and without much mind activity. I had set my intention for a direct flight (12 hours is truly long enough to be in an airplane!) and a price that I wanted it to be under. I ended up with both and I leave in three days time!

 

Decked out in my new colors, drinking in the fragrance of the pink roses.

Quick, yes these new energies are quick. Blessing: I was able to eat the pink color that I was now wearing in my new clothes. A friend invited me over and we had fresh corn on the cob and strawberry yogurt ice cream that she made in her new blender/juicer. Wow! My body loved eating pink! Delicious. Blessing: I felt so welcomed back to my former home by my former hubby.  How sweet it is that I can be in this house when I need a landing spot and that our hearts can honor one another. Blessing: I felt pin prickles of new activations on and off all day all over my body. Fun! Turn me on team, wake me up in every way. I am so ready to soar.

Blessings flowing gently towards me, like this water way in the rose garden.

Blessing: The half moon is still so bright and it shone on my through many hours of the night. Moon bath….yes that works for this magic woman! Of course, I was awake with it into those wee hours as I soaked up all that she graced me with. Blessing: I received an email saying how much my blog meant to someone. I received it as an affirmation from my higher self, a pat on the cheek that I am doing well. Blessing: I was able to support a young person in moving from her mind to her heart, to let go of society’s expectations in order to listen to what her heart has to say. It is such a gift to be here for one another as this shift moves us all into new territory. We are a gift to one another. We are the rainbow tribe that is birthing this new earth.

Blessing: I am knowing how deeply I am loved. And it feels grand!
